some of its objects to providea compound or composition Which may he used :Eor furniture dressing, cleaning, or other purposes, such as the cleaning of doors and other articles, and comprises a substance containing a naphthalene haloidcompound, such as naphthalene tetrachlorid, or the same associated' with a vehicle such as a fired oil or compound of hydro-carbonaceous or other charamber.

As a specific illustration of the new compound or composition and the manner which the same is made, a hydro-carbonaceous vehicle carrying the naphthalene haloid compound, naphthalene tetrachlorid will he taken as an example, which compound or composition is found to he of superior cleaning and antiseptic nature for floors, and other applications Where insecticide, hygienic and sanitary conditions are desired, and Where the laying and collecting oi dust in an antiseptic and germicidal mannor is advantageous, and also Where a polish or shining finish is advisable The preferred vehicle for composition of this naturecomprisesa heavy pe roleum oil, such as is known as neutral oil, having a gravity too great for illuminatmg purposes and too light for lubricating purposes, to which is added approximately fifteen per cent. of naphthalene tetrachlorid and the Whole agitated and associated for a time suficient for the ingredients to be thoroughly This composi tion provides a cheap and economical means for epplyin'g and spreading the naphthalene haloid composition and bringing the same into such immediate and close association to and with the articles applied, that its superior cleansing, purifying and finishing qualities may be secured With the smallest possible quantity material Any other fined or unctuous veh cleipreierably cl hydro-carbonaceous nature may be employed as a diluent or vehicle for the naphthalene haloid compound, be it of solid, semi-solid or fluid nature, under ordinary atmospheric conditions oftemper ture and pressure.

The naphthalene haloid compound may be of substitutive or additive haloid containing nature or character so long as it is a haloid containing naphthalene compound or derivative' and specifically or particularly to those of chlorin containing character, such as the higher chloro naphthalene compounds of Which naphthalene-tetrachlorid is a species.

Compositions of this character containing the haloid naphthalene are particularly advantageous as Water-proofing agents, and particularly when employed in contact with metals, Where it has the property of clinging to the metal in a superior and selective manner so that iron or other readily oaidizable metals may be rendered substantially rustproof by this material, and when applied either directly or through the agency of heat as an augmenting factor, and when applied has the property of causing paints or other coatings applied thereto to become so closely united as to prevent the scaling or ready removal of the paint or other coat ing therefrom, thereby facilitating the adherence or the metal to the paint or other coatin The preferably hydro-carbonaceous substances employed as a vehicle for the halogen naphthalene compounds are those derived from the mineral kingdom, such as petroleum, and they may be of fined or volatile nature according to the purpose for which the vehicleis desired as to Whether it is to remain as a constituent permanently in the material or Whether it is intended to evaporate and leave the naphthalene compound associated per so with the article or material to which it is applied,

For cleaning or dusting purposes all that is necessary is to apply the naphthalenetetrachlorid together with the petroleum to a mop or cloth andspreacl the same upon the surface to be cleaned, whereupon the dust will cling to the cloth or mop While the clean surface Will he coated with the antiseptic and polishing oil. v
